  • So, does that mean the clients will have addresses like .2, .3 or some such as decided by the server? In some setup, why did I get .5 as the first client address? Commented May 2, 2015 at 13:39
  • I don't know why you got .5 as the first address, but... why does it matter? Commented May 2, 2015 at 13:41
  • It mattered for me because I was wondering why .5 was assigned instead of .2. Thanks anyway. Commented May 2, 2015 at 13:48

  • Ah, I forgot about that configuration because I don't use it! I'm sorry about that. Yeah, allocating in units of /30 explains why the first address handed out would be .5. It also wastes 3 IP addresses per client. Commented May 2, 2015 at 18:02
